One twirls a circular ring (of mass $M$ and radius $R$) near the tip of one's finger as shown in Figure $1$. In the process,the finger never loses contact with the inner rim of the ring. The finger traces out the surface of a cone,shown by the dotted line. The radius of the path traced out by the point where the ring and the finger are in contact is $r$. The finger rotates with an angular velocity $\omega_0$. The rotating ring rolls without slipping on the outside of a smaller circle described by the point where the ring and the finger are in contact (Figure $2$). The coefficient of friction between the ring and the finger is $\mu$ and the acceleration due to gravity is $g$.
$(1)$ The total kinetic energy of the ring is
$[A]$ $M \omega_0^2 R^2$ $[B]$ $\frac{1}{2} M \omega_0^2(R-r)^2$ $[C]$ $M \omega_0^2(R-r)^2$ $[D]$ $\frac{3}{2} M \omega_0^2(R-r)^2$
$(2)$ The minimum value of $\omega_0$ below which the ring will drop down is
$[A]$ $\sqrt{\frac{g}{\mu(R-r)}}$ $[B]$ $\sqrt{\frac{2 g}{\mu(R-r)}}$ $[C]$ $\sqrt{\frac{3 g}{2 \mu(R-r)}}$ $[D]$ $\sqrt{\frac{g}{2 \mu(R-r)}}$
